The present study looked at the effects of choices over physical aid during gait in adults after stroke. Eighteen adults post-stroke from unilateral cerebrovascular accident (40-74 years) practiced walking a distance of 4 m, overcoming 2 obstacles in the shortest time possible, with the possibility of using physical aid (support bar) under one of two practice conditions: self-controlled or externally controlled. Participants practiced 30 trials in the first day, and a retention test was performed one day later consisting of five trials without the use of physical aid. The results showed a similar significant improvement in time to complete the task for the groups. Questionnaire results showed that the self-controlled group demonstrated higher levels of positive affect compared with the externally controlled group. The findings show that providing participants with choices about the use of physical aid add benefits to the learning process of stepping over obstacles after stroke.
